Nashoba Brooks Celebrates Morning of Service

On Tuesday, November 22, Nashoba Brooks’ students and employees dedicated the morning to activities in service to and appreciation of their School and the broader community. 
During their Morning of Service, they completed projects focused on thankfulness, helpfulness, empathy, and service to others. There were a wide range of projects underway that day: Preschoolers created bird protectors for the School’s windows, fifth graders worked with kindergartners to package hats and mittens for Cradles to Crayons, first graders helped to clean up the School garden, second graders wrote letters of appreciation to the School’s employees, and third graders recorded audio books for use by younger students in the School library.
 
In the Middle School, fourth graders heard a presentation about pediatric care from Emerson Hospital representative Katie Stockman, a Nashoba Brooks alumna, and worked to support the Emerson Hospital Coping Kits project. Sixth graders wrote letters to servicemen and women as part of Operation Gratitude, and seventh graders learned about community needs in preparation for next spring’s work with Heading Home, an organization dedicated to ending homelessness. Eighth graders packaged books to be donated to the Lawrence Boys’ & Girls’ Club.
 
The School ended the morning with a joyful Ingathering Assembly during which students, employees, parents, and guests sang together and heard reports about the morning’s work and recent service activities conducted by the classes. The School dismissed immediately following the Assembly for the Thanksgiving break.
